There's a kbdin device used by the usb keyboard driver
to feed scan codes (from usb) to the kernel keyboard
driver for processing.
If you are modifying kbd to read scan codes as well, this may

Parallels 5 works like a charm with Plan 9.
Also, it seems to have full ACPI support, not that this is
important for Plan 9 yet.
Thanks

Yep. I just wanted a version with full acpi support, and it
seems that version 5 was what I wanted.
that's handy to debug acpi code.
but yes, it requires a mac.

There's a nice paper "The use of namespaces in plan 9" explaining most of it.

That's great.
no progress here so far on that front.
It's still on my todo list but not on the top of the stack.
If it's urgent for anyone, let me know.

This requires changing ptrwork() in kb.c
The wheel works for some mice I have, and is
reported by |0x80 or |0x10 in said function.
It might be your mice reports the wheel in some
other way.
You might just add a print to see what bytes your
mouse sends. (bytes given by robustread to ptrwork()).
At lsub we are doing a bit of work on a db for linux.
To make a long story short, autoconf/automake/xmkmf/whatelse?
made the code so non portable that a particular version of suse is
now necessary to run the thing.
Isn't that the opposite of what auto* was trying to achieve?
I'd just say: say no.
cant you just use $"n ?

That's weird, I didn't change anything recently.
Do you know which change in sources broke your device?

usually, unplug, then plug.
Otherwise you involve even usbd and the kernel on the process
(you can do a port reset). The port reset code is in, but IIRC, only
the keyboard is using it so far. It's a quite hard measure, so I'd prefer
not to do a port reset unless we are desperated.

Ouch. Ok.
I'll add a port reset upon babling errors for disk drives as soon
as I have a bit of time for that. If it's urgent for you let me know.

It would help being able to "append" to a directory, i.e., being able to
create new files but not to, say, remove, already created files.
mail2fs has the same problem. I run it from a cron on my name, thus my folders
have 770 or 775 and not 777. But, if you want to run this, say, as
